not a fan of black wheels. doesnt work well on many cars at all, wouldnt do it too my old ibiza and changed by black fabia ones to silver.....i will always pick anthrecite over black unless its a car it works with, black takes the look and shape of the alloys away. red and anthrecite look ace!!

Black wheels alone have never made me thing 'Corsa' - the above looks pimp.
Normally, people driving like complete boners, or vinyl, or angel eyes, or chavs make me think of corsas ;)

It's something I'll have to think about really, I like my wing mirrors being silver so I'm not sure how that would look with dark wheels but the roof is VERY tempting. Is there any extra care you have to give vinyl wrapped roofs at all?

vinyl requires less care than paintwork as it's just plastic, although good quality vinyl can be machine polished should there be any swirls on it. Personally, i like dark grey wheels and i think they would look good against the red car

Ah thats good, my dad had vinyl wrap on one of his cars when he was my age (LOL) and said it had to be kept clean but that was a long time ago haha. I like the idea of dark grey wheels but unsure how they'd look with the mirrors HMM!!

URGH i don't want a car that resembles a corsa so the wheel idea is out!! hah

I 100% agree, I am looking at doing my wheels, but again there are too many white corsas with black wheels going around aberdeen, seems like very 2nd car.

I am looking at getting my done dark grey or just getting dark grey race pros, would look awsum on the red :D
